Well a LOT has happened since my last update. There was some pretty serious health issues that I conquered, I lacerated my spleen tubing, the bed rest to heal the spleen resulted in a DVT (blood clot), and finally SHINGLES. (Brought on by the stress of the previous 2 events according to my doctor. I am finally HEALTHY, and happy too!

From the back to front, that is hole cut to the size of a heat vent, where the plumbing comes up. If I ever move out, I can drop a vent in there and plug the hole.

In the middle is a hole cut for securing the PVC to a floor joist. That hole was also used for access to join the 2 pieces needed to get to the basement.

Closest hole was cut because there are 2 joists, about 8" apart that I had to cut holes in. This was a BIG job, about 8 hours, and 3 hole saws later, I got this:

The black line is for the Apex, the orange line is not in use, it is there for power should I need to take the tank off the circuit in the dining room I can. The twine is there to pull added electrical through the floor. So far, I have pulled 2 Cat5 lines in addition to what you see here. The first was for the Apex internet, the second for Apex controlled dimming of my LED's.
